Supporting Young Lives - In Her Memory

Donation protected
I’m setting up this fundraiser around the time of my friend Po-Yuk’s birthday. Every year we’d throw her a little party... I’d bake a cake, we’d have a picnic, bring presents, and try (not always successfully) to surprise her. It became a tradition, something I’ll always treasure.
我係喺我朋友 Po-Yuk 嘅生日左右設立呢個籌款活動。每年我哋都會幫佢女搞個細細地嘅生日派對——我會焗個蛋糕,我哋會去野餐、送禮物,仲會試下(雖然唔係次次成功!)整個驚喜比佢女。呢個變成咗我哋之間嘅傳統,係我永遠都會珍惜嘅回憶。

Po-Yuk ended her life last year. She was only 16.
Po-Yuk 上年離開咗我哋,係自殺走嘅。佢女嗰陣時只係得 16 歲。

There are no words that can fully describe who she was. If you’d met her, you’d understand. She was different in the most perfect way, unlike anyone I’ve ever met. Funny, caring, truly just unforgettable.
冇乜文字可以真正形容到佢女係一個點樣嘅人。如果你見過佢女,你就會明。佢女係咁特別,特別得嚟又咁完美——我從來未見過第二個似佢女嘅人。搞笑、有愛心、細心、永遠唔會令人忘記。

She never spoke about struggling. That’s why it was such a shock when I was told. If I’d known, I would’ve gone to the moon and back to help her. I would’ve done anything.
佢女從來都冇講過自己有咩唔開心。所以當我知道噩耗嘅時候,真係晴天霹靂。如果我早啲知道,我一定會做晒任何事去幫佢女,飛去月球都在所不辭。

We’re raising money for PAPYRUS, a suicide prevention charity that helps young people in crisis and works to break the silence around mental health. If Po-Yuk was here, she defiently would’ve insisted that we (or she) spend the money on sweets (whams, her favourite), but we think she’d like where this is going too.
我哋而家係為 PAPYRUS 呢個防止年青人自殺嘅慈善機構籌款。佢哋幫助有困難嘅年青人,亦努力打破社會對心理健康嘅沉默。如果 Po-Yuk 仲喺度,佢女可能會堅持叫我哋攞啲錢去買糖或者朱古力——但我哋諗佢女都會鍾意我哋呢個做法。

This is for anyone who’s suffering in silence. Because struggling doesn’t always look like what you think. Sometimes it’s quiet. And sometimes the people who seem the happiest are the ones hurting the most.
呢個籌款係為咗嗰啲默默受苦嘅人。因為掙扎未必總係表面睇得出。有時候係靜靜地。有時候睇落最開心嗰啲人,其實先係最痛苦嗰啲。

We don’t have a goal for how much to raise, whatever we receive, we’ll be grateful. What matters most is honouring her memory and helping even one person feel less alone.
我哋對金額冇特別目標——收到幾多都好,我哋都好感激。最重要嘅係紀念佢女,同時令至少一個人唔再覺得孤單。

If you're going through something: please, speak out. There’s always a way through. There’s always someone who will listen.
如果你而家好辛苦:拜託你,一定要講出口。總會有一條路可以行落去。總會有人願意聽你講。

Thank you for reading.
